Hmmm....not crazy about that, hope we don't get more local government tax education campaigns clogging up this theater like they did with Nishitetsu hall.

Also, will we see the return of the rotating platform?

Interesting, this is their way of resuming their live, although not in the Nishitetsu hall theater. (I suppose they won't perform there anymore), but in their rehearsal studio, and the performance was 100% real voices, the girls didn't have their own microphones and the sound was captured with some set on the stage (see photos).
Madoka did some piano accompaniments.

Next performances are allready anounced.
